lied to Kangxi

Chapter 635 The situation has changed drastically

The old emperor suddenly summoned Lao Ba.

Yuzhu sat steadily in the duty room outside Qingxi Bookstore, drinking tea slowly.

The old eighth who was originally in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was taken down by the old emperor and replaced by the old sixteenth.

The old sixteen has no title so far, and has been working very hard as an errand, obviously wanting to earn a shell or a Belle.

After Lao Ba was left idle for two years, the old emperor took the initiative to summon him.According to Yu Zhu's guess, I'm afraid it's time to re-activate Lao Ba again?

Sure enough, after chatting with Lao Ba for more than an hour, the old emperor called Yuzhu in.

"Yuzhu, draw up an edict, ordering the eighth son of the emperor, Baylor Yinhu, to go to Shengjing to worship the ancestral tomb for me." The old emperor glanced at Yuzhu, and said, "You haven't worshiped my ancestral tomb in the Qing Dynasty, have you?"

How clever is Yu Zhu?As soon as he heard it, he knew that the old emperor was planning to let him monitor Lao Ba nearby, lest Lao Ba hook up with the old princes of the Eight Banners in Shengjing.

"Huihan Ama, I have long wanted to go to Shengjing to worship my ancestors in the Qing Dynasty." Yu Zhu honestly expressed his wish.

As expected, the old emperor immediately ordered with a smile: "You take more guards and escort Lao Ba to Shengjing. Be sure to protect it well, and there must be no mistakes."

"Whoo."

Shengjing, also known as Fengtian Prefecture, is today's Shenyang City.

Before the Qing army entered the pass, there were two imperial mausoleums in Shengjing.

Among them, the old slave of Qing Taizu was buried in Fuling, and Qing Taizong Huang Taiji was buried in Zhaoling.

In addition, the Qing Dynasty still had a complete imperial palace in Shengjing.

The official name of the Forbidden City in Fengtian Prefecture is: Shengjing Imperial Palace, also known as the Capital Palace.

According to the architectural layout and construction sequence, the Shengjing Imperial Palace can be divided into three parts, namely East Road, Middle Road and West Road.

The East Road includes the Dazheng Hall and the Ten Kings Pavilion built in the old slave period, where the emperor held grand ceremonies and the ministers of the Eight Banners worked.

The middle road was continued during the Huang Taiji period, and it was the place where the emperor carried out political activities and lived for the concubines.

The West Road was the temporary residence where the old emperor stayed when he was visiting Shengjing eastward, reading books, watching plays, and summoning his ministers and workers.

Since the second abolished prince, the old emperor has never summoned Lao Ba alone.

Now, the old emperor suddenly arranged for Lao Ba to go to Shengjing to worship the sky, obviously with the intention of appeasing the old military heroes of Manchuria.

There is no way, as the old emperor is getting older, many things are slowly becoming incapable.

This is roughly similar to the situation of Old Tong's family.

Tong Guowei, under the name of the emperor's uncle, was enshrined by Longkodo and Yuzhu.

However, within the old Tong's family, Tong Guowei, who used to say a lot, no longer works very well.

The people below are not fools, they all know that sooner or later the old Tong's family will be ruled by Longkodo and his son.

Overtly and secretly, there are countless servants of the Tong family who have taken refuge under Yuzhu's command.

The old emperor, due to lack of energy, lost his absolute control over the government day by day.

The important ministers around Kangxi, even if they dare not publicly support the crown prince, who would dare not bet in advance to stand in line in private?
Since Zhou Quan had been secretly watching the movements of the fourth child, the whereabouts of Zhang Tingyu colluding with the fourth child in private were exposed to Yu Zhu's eyes.

Whether Zhang Tingyu is a civil servant or a Han Chinese is insignificant.

However, due to the trust of the old emperor, Zhang Tingyu knew many secrets in the palace.

What is more ridiculous is that after the fourth child took control of the overall situation in Changchun Garden, he brought Zhang Tingyu back to the palace and searched for the emperor's jade seal necessary for the edict.

As a result, Zhang Tingyu led people to search for it for six days before finding the crucial jade seal in the well.

The capital city has always been under the control of the fourth child. With the Yuxi seal, Zhang Tingyu wrote the pen and Ma Qi signed it, which is a qualified edict.

However, the old eighth and the old fourteenth were very unwilling to lose, and they had been overtly and secretly, and the will was promulgated six days late, making a big fuss and spreading it among the people.

The fourth child is also a wonderful person. Aiming at the bad smell rumors among the people, he actually edited a world-class book in the honor of the emperor: "Da Yi Jue Mi Lu".

As a result, after the book was released to the public, the reputation of the fourth child not only did not improve, but on the contrary, it became stinky at an accelerated rate.

Taking the golden order and decree given by the old emperor, Yu Zhu mobilized one hundred imperial guards and five hundred new troops to escort Lao Ba to Shengjing.

The old emperor was very satisfied with the arrangement of Yuzhu.

Before leaving, the old emperor suddenly changed his mind and stuffed the third child in again.

This arrangement is very interesting.

The third child is a thoughtful prince.

Old Ba, I must have an idea.

Yuzhu is the old emperor's man.

In this way, the ostentation of fighting the landlords was officially staged.

The third child has the highest title, and he is Prince He Shuocheng. He is naturally the official envoy for this trip.

Lao Ba and Yu Zhu, of course, acted as deputy envoys.

On the day of departure, when His Majesty gave his speech, the old emperor ordered: "This is a big matter, don't take it lightly."

"Hey." The three people headed by the third child respectfully responded together.

After coming out of Changchun Garden, the third child was about to board the sedan chair, but he saw Yuzhu's subordinates in the front and back of the car.

"Hmph." The third child was very dissatisfied, but it was the old emperor's will to let Yu Zhu lead the troops to escort him, so there was nothing he could do about it.

The third child has no wings at all, and hardly poses any threat to the old emperor.

Old Ba is different.

Even though the old emperor had suppressed Lao Ba several times, a lot of scumbags in the Ba Ye's party had indeed dissipated.

However, the core members of the Baye's party still never give up on Lao Ba.

According to Yuzhu's understanding, this belongs to Lao Ba's personality charm.

It is also very interesting to say that after the old emperor restored the crown prince, he originally thought that the crown prince's prestige would be greatly damaged and he would not be able to turn the tide.

Who would have thought that the prince had some tricks, and by virtue of the momentum of his restoration, he managed to win over a large number of important court officials.

Moreover, after the prince was deposed once, he felt the pain of having no military power.

After the comeback, the prince focused on the military power and recruited a group of dignitaries with military power.

The old emperor was so threatened by the prince that he couldn't even sleep well, so he simply found an excuse and abolished the prince again.

The struggle for power has always been a continuous upward spiral until one side of the duel completely falls down.

The prince was confined in the Xian'an Palace, and the third son had hope.

Old Eight seems to have been suppressed severely, but his wings have never been truly cut off, and his strength is still extremely strong.

After the third and eighth children boarded the sedan chairs respectively, Yuzhu also got into his own carriage.

With the help of the Dutch East India Company, helical springs were installed on the chassis of Yuzhu's carriage.

Before the springs are installed, sitting in a sedan chair is definitely much more comfortable than riding in a carriage.

With the springs, Yu Zhu's carriage drove on the potholed official road. Although it was still a little bumpy, it was many times more comfortable than before.

Of course, Yuzhu is happy to take a carriage, mainly because the carriage is very spacious.

Qingwen, who accompanied her to Shengjing this time, could not only serve Yuzhu extremely comfortably, but also talk privately together.
